Chapter 1103
Celeste was already in pain from her wound, so when the woman suddenly rushed over, she was startled, making her headache
ven worse.
¡he said, “Get up, don’t make yourself look so pathetic.”
The woman wasn’t as cocky as she was at the start. She shook her head, and her voice choked with emotion as she said, “I’m so Ishamed, I can’t stand up. I shouldn’t have just listened to one–sided stories on the internet, and I shouldn’t have acted mpulsively and hurt you, I’m ashamed of my actions.”
The little girl beside them was scared out of her wits watching het cousin about to be taken to the police station. She cried and begged Celeste, “Please, ma’am, they can’t take my cousin away…
Celeste gently patted the little girl’s head and turned to Mason, and said, “Take the kid home first.”
Mason nodded. The little girl didn’t want to leave and kept holding onto Celeste, asking. “Ma’am, will you let my cousin go?” Instead of answering her question, Celeste said, ‘She’ll be back.”
The little girl’s mind wasn’t as complex as adults. Hearing that her cousin would be back, she finally relaxed and whispered to Celeste, Thank you, ma’am.”
After the little girl had left, Celeste turned to the woman again and calmly said, “Stand up.”
The woman choked out. “If you don’t forgive me, I won’t stand up.”
She was aware that this incident would cause a big commotion. The surveillance video of her assaulting someone was very clear if Celeste decided to press charges, she would have to face legal
consequences no matter what the reason for her actions Being detained, whether for administrative or criminal reasons, would be a black mark on her record at her university. The lightest punishment would be canceling her graduate recommendation, while the heaviest would be expulsion. All her years of hard work would be in vain.
But if Celeste forgave her, the school might only give a symbolic punishment, like a warning or public criticism. After everything had blown over, she could continue applying for a graduate course and graduate without major consequences.
So, the key now was Celeste’s attitude. She was begging her in front of so many people. If she didn’t forgive her, it wouldn’t look good on her image of being forgiving, so she was sure Celeste would forgive her, as it would be a good chance to build her image
After all, people in the entertainment industry are experts at building their image. Be it a foodie, a top student, a strong woman, or an innocent boy….
Celeste’s reputation had already taken a hit due to this incident. She would definitely take this opportunity to boost her image and attract fans, right?
However, the reality was far from her expectations.
Celeste didn’t act as she had anticipated. She didn’t even care about her image.
She said calmly, “I appreciate your admission of guilt, but I don’t plan to forgive you. As an adult, you have to take responsibility for your actions. If you truly regret your actions, you can come back and apologize after the investigation is over.”
Upon hearing this, the woman was stunned. She had never expected Celeste to be so cold and heartless
